Disneyland Storybook Land Canal Boats - That's Where We Were!

Each and every Monday we challenge our readers to guess "where we are" based on a random picture taken somewhere at the Disneyland Resort.  This week was no different, and we had tons of guesses thrown our direction, and for the first time ever, each guess we received was correct; not to mention we had more correct guesses than ever before.  A couple of people told us, "That was too easy!", prompting us to think that maybe next week we really need to throw the gauntlet down; so expect a nine or ten on the difficulty scale as a result.  But for this week, we had lots of people come check us out and guess, and that's really what it's all about.

This week's picture came to us courtesy of the Storybook Land Canal Boats inside Fantasyland in Disneyland Park:


As so many people correctly guessed, it's a picture of the coach that Cinderella took to the ball one fateful night, and is near the miniature version of Cinderella's Castle roughly halfway through the attraction.  While the picture was taken on the canal boats, several of our readers pointed out (correctly - though we hadn't thought about it) that you can in fact also see it from on board the Casey Jr. Circus Train, so we accepted either answer as correct on this one.


As always, we like to give a shout-out to everyone who came by and guessed, so here they in order of guess and by Twitter (or commenter) name:
  • Ajackieo
  • P.T. from 400 Miles to Disneyland
  • Jory Hastings
  • Disney Mama 6
  • Granuaille
  • Mommy Mylin
  • ChevyBurnz
  • Robinpoppins
  • Mike Ludwig
  • Chachalina55
  • Rosalie Black
  • (anonymous commenter)
  • Chilebob
  • Alyssa (Copy_Pixie)
And there you have them - lots of correct guesses!  Even though it might have been a bit easier than some of our spots, we also had several people tell us that it was a great picture and that they really enjoyed it, so we want to thank Harvickfan005 again for being willing to share one of her photos with us.

We'll be back next week with another brand-new spot for our readers to take a crack at!  In the meantime, if you have any suggestions for a spot you'd like for us to do, or a picture of your own that you would like to submit for us to use, drop us a line at daysinthepark@daysinthepark.com.  We love having reader submissions and would love to take a look at whatever spots you might have that you'd like to see here.

Until next week, keep those peepers open and be sure and take in all of the little details all over Disneyland; you never know what little details you might see that you never have before.

Magical Mystery Mondays - Where at Disneyland Are We?

It's time to get Days In The Park cranked up and rolling again!  You may have noticed that after the D23 Expo we've been on a bit of an imposed hiatus while we sorted through some things, but it's time to crank it up and hit the accelerator once again!

Monday has long been one of our favorite days of the week because we get to to do something easy but fun; challenge with you a picture.  Each and every week we come across hundreds of spots we think would make great picture opportunities, and each and every week we challenge you, our readers, to attempt to guess where we were in Disneyland when we took our pictures.  Some of them are easy, some of them are hard, but based on the number of people we have guessing on a weekly basis, people love playing guessing games and at least trying to participate.  It's a great way for us to get you involved and commenting on our blog more.

This week's photo is another submitted to us by a reader, and in fact she's submitted one to us before!  We think it's great that people like to participate in this way, so many thanks again to Harvickfan005 for being willing to share both with us and you.

So, do you know where she took this picture?


If you think you know where it is, let us know!  There are a couple of really easy ways to do so:
We try to keep your answers hidden as best that we can so that more people get a chance to guess.  We like to keep it going as long as we can and give everyone a shot.

We'll be back tomorrow morning to post up all the people who guessed correctly and give you the exact spot where this was taken.  Have fun, don't take it too seriously, and let the guesses fly!
